History of Assam Tribune

Assam Tribune is the oldest English newspaper of Assam. It is the largest circulated English daily in North Eastern part of India with a circulation of over 700,000 copies and a readership of 3 million. It is currently published from Guwahati and Dibrugarh as a daily newspaper.

Originally Assam Tribune started as a weekly newspaper from Dibrugarh. It was launched on 4th of August, 1939 by Radha Govinda Baruah who was called the architect of modern Assam. He was an ingenious gentleman from Dibrugarh who conceived the idea of an English newspaper. Noted for his contributions towards Assamese society and culture, Radha Govinda Baruah, started the weekly with the initial help of some friends and well-wishers.

Radha Govinda Baruah appointed Lakshminath Phookan as the first editor of Assam Tribune. He formerly worked as an editorial staff of Hindustan Standard and later became one of the major figures of Assamese journalism. Under R.N Baruah and L.N Phookan, Assam Tribune soon became a popular newspaper which had wide circulation among tea estate managers, high schools and lawyers. At the time when Assam’s literacy rate was 10% among which not even 1% was English educated, publishing and increasing the readership of an English newspaper like Assam Tribune was a feat in itself. R.N Baruah was instrumental towards growing the educational needs of Assamese population.

R.N Baruah single-handedly managed the growth of Assam Tribune. He promoted the newspaper and collected advertisements from various establishments himself. In September 1946, Assam Tribune began publishing as a daily newspaper instead of weekly and shifted its publication to Guwahati. Eminent personalities of Assam contributed to the daily columns of Assam Tribune and thereby making it a popular daily among the masses. The newspaper covered news from all over North East but 2-3 pages were dedicated to news from Assam region. Established as well as fresh journalists represented the newspaper since the time of its inception.
